In 2018, General Data Protection Regulations (GDPR) were established which require us to notify you of the storage of your personal data. This personal data is obtained as part of our intake process to ensure there are no contraindications for treatment and to work with you in the context of your personal history.

​

You can, of course, refuse to provide this information, however, we will be unable to provide treatment, as this form is a legal requirement for our insurance.

​

How long will my data be stored?

​

For adults, 5 years after the date of your last treatment.

For children, 5 years after they turn 18

​

Where and how will my data be stored?

​

Client intake forms and treatment notes will be stored on paper only in a locked container on the premises.

Contact information (name, phone number and email address) will also be kept on our phones to enable communication with you. Our phones are password protected.

​

Who can see my data?

​

Only the practitioner you have seen will have access to your data. We will never share your data with anyone, unless you have given express written consent.

You have the right to see and request amendments to your personal data, including your treatment notes at any time.

​

How is my data used?

​

We will only use your contact information to send you reminders for appointments, or to book or follow up with you after treatment.

We will refer to your intake form and treatment notes before each session to ensure your treatment remains relevant, safe and on track with any goals you may have.
